Interaction Information:
Comment | Female GPAT1-/- mice had reduced body weight-gain and adiposity when fed chow diet compared with littermate wild-type controls, they showed decreased liver TAG content, plasma cholesterol and TAG levels and increased ex vivo liver fatty acid oxidation and plasma ketone bodies. However when fed a long-term high-fat diet these beneficial effects were abolished and the glucose tolerance tended to be impaired in female GPAT1-/- mice. There were no changes in male GPAT1-/- mice fed either chow of high-fat diet except for increased plasma ketone bodies on chow diet, indicating a gender-specific phenotype. |
